Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method and apparatus for energy conversion. More specifically, the invention relates to a method and apparatus for cyclical conversion of an input energy source into the kinetic energy of a magnetic field modulated by vortices, and then into electric energy.
- Electrical conductor Comprised of an assemblage of matter that forms a volume of material with the property of conducting electric current with low loss or no loss.
- Diamagnetism A property of matter where magnetic fields permeate with a reduced degree of penetration, or are repelled, defined here to clarify the definition of vortices used herein.
- Vortex when used, the plural “vortices” is also implied: Comprised of matter forming a area, located within and / or adjacent to a vortex material, that has the characteristic of reduced diamagnetism within said area, relative to a comparatively increased diamagnetism outside said area.
- the said area may be comprised of an additional dimension establishing a volume.
- the reduced diamagnetism allows a higher magnetic field density within a vortex, while the area surrounding the vortex has a relatively lower density of the magnetic field.
- Vortices are formed by a set of conditions applied to a vortex material. For example, by placing a vortex material, that may be comprised of a superconductor material, in a magnetic field, and transferring heat energy out of the material, urging the material into the superconducting state, vortices form within and / or adjacent to the material.
- a vortex forms, the magnetic field density inside the vortex increases, and since the field may be comprised of a total field in an area in which that field is conserved, the magnetic field surrounding the vortex is urged to decrease, such that the total conserved field, comprising the field inside and outside the vortex, remains the same.
- Vortex material Comprised of an assemblage of matter within and / or adjacent to which a vortex can form.
- the vortex th at forms may do so because of conditions comprised by the properties of the said vortex material.
- An example vortex material is a superconductor material.

- the vortex material may be re-entrant, meaning that the vortex forms and subsequently dissipates in the vortex material, without any external stimulation.
- the vortex material may be non-re-entrant, meaning that that a vortex forms and / or dissipates only upon external stimulation.
- the vortex material may be comprised of materials that exhibit both re-entrant and non-reentrant behavior.

- predisposed dimensions that are determined by the properties of the assemblage of matter that forms the vortex material, and determined by the environmental conditions that the vortex material is operated in..
- Other vortices nearby will also form at predictable locations nearby the vortices specifically compelled, by virtue of predisposed dimensions of the vortices.
- Magnetic field modulation A change in the density of a magnetic field permeating an area of matter, whereby the change occurs over an interval of time. For example, the formation and dissipation of a vortex will change the magnetic field near where the vortex forms and dissipates.
- This changing magnetic field over time is a kinetic energy, comprised of a movement of the density of the field, also known as a modulation of the magnetic field, since the field density is moving as time elapses.
- This may be referred to as field modulation, field density change, movement of magnetic flux, or modulation of the field. All have the same meaning.

- the increasing magnetic field density is illustrated by 33. While the magnetic field density is increasing in the inductor, electric power flows from the inductor, indicated by the arrow 34. Though not depicted, when the vortex dissipates, electric power also flows from the inductor, with the current in the opposite direction, according to Lenz's Law.
- FIGURE 8 illustrates a placement of inductor assemblies 37 in between the location that vortices 39 form from a vortex material 41. Three vortices are shown.

- Said energy may be comprised of the energy of the electrical current produced by the Quench Control 600 in FIGURE 11 .
- the electric power induced in the inductor may be induced by an electromagnetic induction comprised of a changing magnetic field with respect to the inductor by a displacement of magnetic flux density from one vortex to another. This occurs by the property of the vortices, where an amount of flux in one vortex may displace to other vortices.

- FIGURE 5 illustration may also refer to the alignment of individual layers, rather than specific chips
- the chips aligned and attached to each other using the aforesaid alignment method are mounted into a substrate with a cavity 30 of FIGURE 2A .

- the current used is ten times the nominal half ampere quenching current, applied as a high speed current pulse via Quench Control circuit 600, as a one hundred nanosecond, five ampere quenching pulse. This quenches the vortex material within 500, dissipating vortices. Feedback may be utilized by Quench Control 600 to modulate the quenching pulse, while utilizing minimal electric energy, such that the net Electricity Output 200 is maximized.

- the controller of FIGURE 1 exploded into detail within FIGURE 11 , supplies an means of external stimulation, via the pulsed current, to operate the vortex material in a cyclical re-entrant mode.
- Heat energy is used in the vor tex material to effect the change in organization. Since the vortex material is not operated adiabatically, instead of its temperature simply lowering, heat energy is transferred into the vortex material, whereby the vortex material effectively absorbs heat energy from its operating environment, especially through the heat valve 300. The actual action is that the heat energy transfers from the warmer heat valve 300 to the vortex material.
- Energy supplied to the present invention may be comprised of heat energy by heat source 100, as modulated by heat valve 300.

- the Bi-2223 material After cessation of the quenching current pulse, and absorbing energy from the source, the Bi-2223 material, still below its superconducting temperature threshold Tc, will be in the superconducting state, and vortices are again formed, flux is modulated, and electricity generated in the inductor array chip within 500.
- Vortex formation, quenching, vortex dissipation, energy absorption, together with generation of electricity by electromagnetic induction from magnetic field modulation, are the cycles of the method of the present invention.
- more than one form of energy was involved in the cycles of the method of the present invention, comprised of the energy of an electric current, and heat energy.
- the usable Electricity Output for the system is ten watts, with an energy input that may be comprised of 10.1 watts.
- the system may be scaled upward, and the cycle rate increased to provide correspondingly higher output capacities.
- the vortex flux generator in an exemplary embodiment is used as a thermoelectric converter, with an intermediate phase of magnetic field modulation.
- Energy from the Heat Source 100 is converted into Electricity Output 200.
- Heat energy which may be comprised of waste heat, is removed via the cryogenic pump 700 to the waste heat sink 800.
- Waste heat sink 800 may be comprised of a sink at a lower temperature than heat source 100.
- Battery 400 is enabled via switch 95 to start the process, supplying electric power to run the cryogenic pump 700, and the quench control 600. After the cyclical energy generation operation begins, and the heat energy source is used as the energy input for the system, switch 95 may select that a portion of the electrical output of the generator 500 be used to power the quench control 600 and cryogenic pump 700, rather than use the battery.
